The Crib of our Foundation


In the narrative of our aspirations,
We remember them either for good or bad.
We recall their deeds and accomplishments.
In any family and lineage;
In every town and village;
In any city and country;
And even in every organisation and institution;
There are the pacesetters and touch bearers,
Who understood the guided our paths here?
They were women and men with a towering audacity;
That breathed sparked energy into our liberation struggles.

Beyond the founder co-founders argument,
The nature, confidence, optimism and eccentric attributes of our worthy ancestors need to be interrogated.
Besides their bravery and healthy ego to think and act with a purpose despite their disagreement, offers a rich lesson for us to learn from.

Today, more than ever, we require some of their rich VALUES of selflessness, and love for the country to successfully weather all the difficult experiences to build a beautiful nation.

It is therefore critical that we nurture Consistency, Patriotic Passion, Integrity, Versatility, Trustworthiness, Selflessness and the Willingness to defend and promote the Good in our Land.
If we dedicate ourselves to believing in ourselves and supporting each other to grow and working together to ensure this growth, then we would be achieving the dream of our ancestors.

If only we can lower the petty politicking and see the big picture of uniting our differences and forging ahead to build, then we would be giving true meaning to the struggles of our precursors and founders.

Whether we are for or against the Founder or co-founders' position, one thing is clear: they built a FOUNDATION and the onus is upon us to build the great nation envisioned for our wellbeing. 

May God help us to do the needful, galvanise our patriotic mindset and grant us the willpower to push through this dream.
And may those frustrating and betraying the Nation REPENT.
Best wishes to you.
Greetings
